EX-99 2 firstcaprelease.txt 1 FIRST CAPITAL, INC. REPORTS FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS Corydon, Indiana--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 26, 2007. First Capital, Inc. (NASDAQ: FCAP - news), the holding company for First Harrison Bank (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $749,000 or $0.26 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, compared to $934,000 or $0.33 per diluted share for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The decrease in earnings is due to an increase in noninterest expense and a decrease in net interest income after provision for loan losses partially offset by an increase in noninterest income. Net interest income after provision for loan losses decreased $164,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 as compared to the prior year. Interest income increased $473,000 when comparing the periods as the average tax-equivalent yield of interest-earning assets increased from 6.23% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2006 to 6.48% during the same period in 2007. Interest expense increased $582,000 when comparing the periods as the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased from 3.18% to 3.74%. The provision for loan losses increased from $170,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 to $225,000 for the same period in 2007. Noninterest income increased $66,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006. Gains on mortgage loan sales increased $97,000 when comparing the two periods while commission income decreased $38,000. The decrease in commission income is primarily due to the Bank selling its property and casualty insurance business in December 2006. Noninterest expenses increased $208,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2007 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2006. Compensation and benefits increased $125,000 when comparing the two periods primarily due to normal increases in salaries and benefits. Other operating expenses increased $64,000 when comparing the two periods due primarily to expenses related to the maintenance and sale of foreclosed real estate properties. Total assets as of March 31, 2007 were $450.5 million compared to $457.1 million at December 31, 2006. The primary factor behind the decline in assets was a $5.3 million decrease in gross loans receivable due to net loan repayments. These funds were used primarily to pay down Federal Home Loan Bank debt by $3.0 million and retail repurchase agreements by $2.9 million. First Harrison Bank currently has eleven offices in the Indiana communities of Corydon, Georgetown, Greenville, Floyds Knobs, Hardinsburg, Palmyra, New Albany, New Salisbury and Jeffersonville. The Bank also has received regulatory approval to open a new office in Salem, Indiana, and construction is expected to begin in the second quarter of 2007.
